Slides examined (cont.)
1) Bacterial gland attached to brown body.
Bicellaria _______. In this species the
polypide is not regenerated. The polypide
lives 3 weeks + has rapid growth
resulting in extensive colonies.
Bacteria have no nuclei +, & generally
appear colourless & naturally not
taking any nuclear stain. You need to
isolate bacteria to establish if the it is
bacterial gland using bacterial
agashes?
2) Elnatra, Regeneration of polypides.
As one moves to proximal part of colony
you find 3 sets of regenerated
regeneration to 3iol regenerated
polypide + 2 sets of brown bodies in
the zooid. Also note sperm + eggs.
3) Spermatozoa develop on walls of
Hmbonula. Guellet (who worked in
CNRS lab, 1952-60.) studied spermatid
development but GL uncertain where
information was published. Spermatozoa
are generally on lateral walls in
funiculus.
